Securing The Food Supply: Industrial Cybersecurity In The Food And Beverage Sector


This publication unpacks the various aspects of the food and beverage industry in relation to cybersecurity. The angles we explore are: Cyber Threats: The food, beverage, and agriculture sectors have become targets for cyber threats at an increasing rate, with 2021 standing out as the most severe. Alarmingly, this uptick did not have a corresponding decrease in the following years, remain... » read more

Security For AI And AI For Security


The aspect for AI was drastically changed after the introduction of ChatGPT from 2022. Even during 2010s, the question of whether the evolution of AI can overcome human’s logical thinking had been researched and developed (e.g., IBM Watson and Google AlphaGo). Now, a few years later from these results, everyone can experience the future potential of AI from the advent of generative AI. Major ... » read more

Supercharging AI Inference With GDDR7


A rapid rise in the size and sophistication of AI inference models requires increasingly powerful AI accelerators and GPUs deployed in edge servers and client PCs. GDDR7 memory offers an attractive combination of bandwidth, capacity, latency and power for these accelerators and processors. The Rambus GDDR7 Memory Controller IP offers industry leading GDDR7 performance of up to 40 Gbps and 160 G... » read more

The Importance Of Power Conversion Technologies In The Production Of Green Hydrogen


Global demand for green hydrogen is high and rising fast. Some studies predict that the electrical power demand to produce green hydrogen will be 4500 GW by 2050, compared to today’s (2023) electrical power demand of around 25 GW. This exponential growth will be fueled by green hydrogen which will reduce the carbon footprint of existing industries that use hydrogen as a feedstock, and by the ... » read more

Adapting To Evolving IC Requirements


As chip designs become increasingly heterogeneous and domain-specific, packing a device with one-size-fits-all chips or chiplets doesn't make sense. The key is rightsizing different components based on real workloads, so they don't waste power when there is too little utilization of logic, and so they don't struggle to complete tasks because they are undersized. Jayson Bethurem, vice president ... » read more

Sensor Fusion Challenges In Automotive


The number of sensors in automobiles is growing rapidly alongside new safety features and increasing levels of autonomy. The challenge is integrating them in a way that makes sense, because these sensors are optimized for different types of data, sometimes with different resolution requirements even for the same type of data, and frequently with very different latency, power consumption, and re... » read more

Fundamental Issues In Computer Vision Still Unresolved


Given computer vision’s place as the cornerstone of an increasing number of applications from ADAS to medical diagnosis and robotics, it is critical that its weak points be mitigated, such as the ability to identify corner cases or if algorithms are trained on shallow datasets. While well-known bloopers are often the result of human decisions, there are also fundamental technical issues that ... » read more

Future-Proofing Automotive V2X


Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss Vehicle-To-Everything (V2X) technology and the path to deployment with Shawn Carpenter, program director, 5G and space at Ansys; Lang Lin, principal product manager at Ansys; Daniel Dalpiaz, senior manager product marketing, Americas, green industrial power division at Infineon; David Fritz, vice president of virtual and hybrid... » read more

Integrating ADAS/IVI SoCs Using Automotive IP


The automotive industry continues to evolve the centralized electrical/electronic (EE) architecture, impacting automakers, and Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers, as they implement various applications over the next 10 years. The new architecture is structured around a centralized compute module which executes multiple applications such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)/highly automated dri... » read more

Quantum Computing Challenged By Security, Error Correction


The number and volume of warnings about a post-quantum cryptography (PQC) world are rising, as governments, banks, and other entities prepare for a rash of compromised data and untrustworthy digital signatures. Exactly when this will become a genuine threat is still somewhat fuzzy, because it depends on progress in developing robust qubits. A report by McKinsey & Co. estimates that by 20... » read more
